I thought that I would have 2 more week until it started but I guess bebe has other plans for me. I was really hoping it would wait until I got home next week so we wouldn't have to tell the IL's (just in case) while we were visiting. But I don't think I can hide it much longer. I am already taking Ginger and drinking Ginger Ale. I am about to go get Peppermint oil capsules (and suck on mints and I HATE those).

I just hope it doesn't get as bad as it did with DS where I was bed bound for 2 weeks with no food being cooked in the house, and the nausea was so bad I lost 20 lbs due to not eating.

Anyone have any alternative suggestions? Or what you are doing to combat it?

I'm 6 weeks and 4 days today and I'm in shock that I'm not sick yet. With both my boys I was sick at least once a day and felt horrible the rest of the day. I lost a lot of weight with DS1 and I had to take zofran. With DS2 I was really sick too, but I started zofran a lot sooner.

This time I don't feel great, but I can eat. I am so tired though (which I don't remember being with the boys.

I would talk to your doctor about getting some medicine before you loose too much weight. Oh and I've been eating lots of foods with protein! It seems to help better than Crackers.

I started feeling a little sickness as soon as I hit 6 weeks, it hasn't been as strong as with DS so maybe girl this time?! I get a bout in the morning around breakfast time but I've been forcing myself to eat and so far the nausea has subsided shortly after.

It's here but just in the slight beginning stage... I feel a little sick in the morning (no throwing up), smells are becoming a little stronger, I'm eating slower, and I'm becoming pickier about foods. Last time it came from weeks 8-12 and was at it's worst during week 10 where I barely ate a thing other than fruit.

Gah, weeks 8-12 were the pits!

I can not believe I actively sought out to do this again! Ha, it's amazing what the mind is capable of forgetting.
